In Chaos City, not only was the Buffett Banks renowned throughout the world, the Buffett Winery was also renowned as the best winery on the entire Norland Continent.
This was the pride of Chaos City, and almost everyone knew about it.
Wine wasn't invented by Ian Buffett, but it was renowned throughout the world because of the Buffett Winery. It was popular among the nobles, and the purple liquid swirling in the glass had also become a symbol of class.
As such, Ian Buffett was known as the father of wine, which was a testament to everyone's approval of him.
However, Ian was now roaring at Meg in a fit of rage because Meg had used this wine to cook?
"Where did this wine come from, Mr. Mak? Why is Old Master Ian so angry? "
"I tasted it yesterday, and I knew that this wine was no ordinary wine. Old Master Ian's reaction today is quite similar to mine."
"Don't be a hindsight."
"Setting everything else aside, this incident is enough to show Mr. Mak's attitude toward food. He's using such a precious wine to cook steak, and he's making it so delicious. The price of 1,500 copper coins is far too generous!"
All of the customers were discussing quietly among themselves as they looked at Meg and Ian with interest. This legendary old master had always been known for his benevolence, and there weren't many situations that could make him fly into a rage.
"Beef, red wine, and black pepper are all top-notch ingredients, and only then can a perfect steak be made. Hence, I don't think there's any blasphemy involved. In my eyes, red wine is just as precious as beef and black pepper." Meg looked at Ian with a serious expression. He had thought that this old man was here to inspect him and discuss business, but he didn't think that he would destroy his restaurant as soon as the dishes were served.
However, if it were his grandfather, his reaction would probably be similar if he saw such good red wine being used to make steak. People who loved wine couldn't accept wasting good wine.
Of course, in Meg's heart, using red wine to cook steak wasn't a waste. Without such a high-quality wine, how could he make the most delicious steak? After all, cooking was his main occupation.
"Good wine has a soul! How can you compare it with beef and black pepper? " Ian glared at Meg and waved his hand, saying, "Go, bring me a bottle of this wine. How much wine do you have left in your store? I'll take all of it. I'll charge you the price of the most expensive wine in the Buffett Winery."
The guests gasped when they heard this. The most expensive wine from the Buffett Winery was sold for 200,000 copper coins per bottle, and this was the price of the winery itself. Generally, after a few rounds on the market, the price would soar to more than 300,000 copper coins. Moreover, there was no market for such wine.
"There's not a lot of wine, so it's only used to cook steaks. It's not for sale." Meg shook his head with a smile.
"Do you know how much a bottle of Buffett's most expensive wine costs? As long as one bottle of wine was sold, it would be equivalent to two hundred steaks. Marinating two hundred steaks would require more than one bottle of red wine. You'll be struck by lightning for wasting such a precious treasure! " Ian was fuming with rage. He had thought that the owner of the store would have a good brain, but now it seemed that the owner was stubborn and couldn't even calculate such a small amount.
"The wine is not for sale. Please don't force it. If you want to drink, the restaurant provides beer, and you can order freely. If there's nothing else, I'll continue cooking. The other guests are still waiting. "Meg nodded politely and turned to the kitchen.
"200,000 per bottle, and Mr. Mak rejected it!"
"I've only admired a few people in my life, and now Mr. Mak is one of them. He's the conscience of the gourmet world!"
"Yeah, those who complain about the price of food, don't they have a conscience? That's 200,000 per bottle of wine, and Mr. Mak used it to cook steaks! "
"Well, waiter, please give me a black pepper steak."
All of the customers in the restaurant burst into an uproar at the sight of Mag's departing figure, and they were all struck by a sense of awe and veneration.
"You little bastard! You … "Ian abruptly rose to his feet and prepared to chase after Meg.
"Master! Please calm down, Master! It's not good for your health to be affected by your anger. " Brooker hurriedly rose to his feet and held Ian back. It had been many years since he had seen his master so angry, and he consoled, "This wine only has a slightly stronger aroma. There's no way that there's wine in this world that's better than the wine brewed by the Buffett Winery. Besides, he doesn't look like he's capable of brewing good wine. Perhaps he's only used some tricks to enhance the aroma. After all, he's a chef. "
Ian looked at Brooker, and thought to himself for a moment before sitting back down in his seat. "Brewing wine is a delicate process. Without several decades of experience, it's impossible to brew good wine. He's a chef, not a winemaker. This wine smells good, but it doesn't necessarily taste good.
Besides, I've never heard of using wine to cook, so it's definitely going to taste very mediocre. "
Ian hesitated momentarily at the sight of the delectable beef before him before picking up his fork and placing the piece of beef that he had just sliced into his mouth.
He opened his mouth and took a light bite, and delicious gravy flowed out of the beef. The aroma of the black pepper was just right, and the delectable flavor danced on the tip of his tongue. A smile appeared on Ian's face. This flavor was simply unfathomable.
He wasn't a picky eater, but the chef of the Moreton Manor had to be the best chef in Chaos City. In terms of deliciousness, he had never tasted beef as delicious as this one.
After chewing carefully, Ian's expression abruptly changed. Aside from the delectable flavor of the beef, the sweet aroma of the wine was like a hidden treasure that had suddenly appeared before him.
It was an irresistible attack of sweetness. It was not overshadowed by the deliciousness of the beef and black pepper, nor did it appear to be abrupt or unique. Instead, it blended perfectly into the beef, making the beef even more delicious and mellow, giving it a mellow texture.
This was the most mellow and delicious wine that he had ever tasted. Even though it was only used as a spice, it still couldn't conceal its delectable flavor.
In comparison, even the three barrels of V-grade wine produced by the Buffett Winery each year paled in comparison.
There was nothing to nitpick about the delectable flavor of the steak. It had completely subverted all of Ian's expectations of beef. Every single cell in his body was cheering with joy, and he was completely in awe of this delectable flavor.
He was even suddenly feeling a little relieved. Only the best wine could match such delectable beef.
"This smells so good!"
